SOLITUDE

 

In the valley there

Where no man weeps there

In that dark valley there

Where all life is stripped thread-bare

Where weeds choke without a said care

In that valley there,

I have stumbled upon a distant flare

A flame of fortune-fare

An instant care,

A new life where I begin to pray

A new place where not even eagles dare

A new life that’s here to stay

A full light that shadows doubt

A new sun that shimmers bright…

 

In that valley there,

In that valley where,

Where no man sleeps there

In that dark room

Away from the supersonic boom

To sweep clean I’ve found a new broom

To see light I used the moon

To disfigure pain I etched hope

To fight dread I said scratched skin

In that valley there

In that place where,

I’ve found some soothing care

In the mountains where

The river runs too deep

In the trees there

Where memories are yours to keep

In that valley there,

In that valley where,

I have found all my peace…
